WELCOME!

To the Biodiversity section of the Green Box!

The aim of this section of the Green Box is to record what you or anyone involved in the farm, see when out and about on the farm. Familiar birdsongs, brown hares, wildflowers or something you don’t recognize that has made the farm their home. Gathering this information will help provide the evidence for which farming practices deliver the most improvements for the flora and fauna on the farm.

We have divided biodiversity into the following sections –

• Plants
• Mammals
• Invertebrates
• Birds
• Amphibians
• Fungi 

How to get started -

If this is the first time you have visited the Green Box website, then have a look around and if you would like to get involved we suggest taking a look at the guidance notes first. These are downloadable as pdf's from the ‘myGreenBox’ home page, click on the tab to the left of this page and follow the instructions.

If you already have the Green Box guidance notes, go straight to the ‘myGreen Box’ tab from this page. LEAF members, log in using your username and password. This will take you through to the links to help you find out more information.

If you would like to input some data straight away then follow the instructions through from the ‘myGreenBox’ tab on this page. LEAF members, log in using your username and password.

If you need further help once you have started then contact us at greenbox@leafuk.org  

Good luck!
